Summary

This quote suggests that the primary responsibility of a physician should be to educate people about prevention and healthy living, rather than relying solely on medication to treat illnesses. The emphasis is on promoting holistic well-being and empowering individuals to take charge of their own health by adopting healthy habits and making informed choices. By prioritizing education, physicians can potentially reduce the reliance on unnecessary medications and foster a mindset that prevention is better than cure.

So farewell to the little good you bear me. Farewell! a long

So farewell to the little good you bear me. Farewell! a long farewell, to all my greatness!This is the state of man: to-day he puts forthThe tender leaves of hopes; to-morrow blossoms,And bears his blushing honours thick upon him;The third day comes a frost, a killing frost,And, when he thinks, good easy man, full surelyHis greatness is a-ripening, nips his root,And then he falls, as I do. I have venturd,Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders,This many summers in a sea of glory,But far beyond my depth. My high-blown prideAt length broke under me, and now has left me,Weary and old with service, to the mercyOf a rude stream that must for ever hide me. Vain pomp and glory of this world, I hate ye!I feel my heart new opend. O, how wretchedIs that poor man that hangs on princes favours!There is, betwixt that smile we would aspire to,That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,More pangs and fears than wars or women have;And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,Never to hope again.

William Shakespeare
